Arch Linux User Repository

Potential breaking change: the service file security has been tightened. If you altered it any way on your machine, you might not be able to start ASF.

You can debug the problem introduced with SystemCallFilter, by following https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/681075

Starting with 5.1.4.0-1, the custom service files provided with this package have been replaced with the one upstream.

It uses a EnvironmentFile in /etc/asf to point to the right dir (remember, you want n-1 from asf config folder).

It also serves to populate the user and home folder for the daemon.

Compiling asf (or anything really) using community dotnet is broken right now (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/65128).

AFAIK it's not possible to use checksum checks on git clones.

Not sums but commits, just like the one you used for ASF-ui. They offer the same level of control since they are unique hash.

You might even be using such packages right now (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/git/). glibc and linux being the more obvious.

As for now, all the sha256 sums tell you is that the archive was not modified between the time I downloaded it and you build the package. If GitHub were publishing sums, then it would be another story…

[…] by using git for the next stable release.

Not sure if the guidelines will be met when using git: "Do not diminish the security or validity of a package (e.g. by removing a checksum check […]". AFAIK it's not possible to use checksum checks on git clones.

While at it: The sources should be unique now. They overhauled the guidelines the other days.

Thank you Lucki for doing the leg work. I'll pretty it up by using git for the next stable release.

@JustArchi: This package doesn't clone the git repository so the git commands aren't available. Downloading the targeting commit seems to do the same.

@Gilrain: This got me the UI back:

ASF-ui will be integrated, eventually. I ran out of time trying to understand what went wrong with the v4.1.1.3 binaries and finally switching to source. As always, feel free to contribute a patch for the PKGBUILD.

@Lucki this is likely because you're either missing ASF-ui submodule in the source, missing npm to build ASF-ui with, or both. Source on GitHub sadly doesn't recurse into submodules, @Gilrain would need to add sub-step after extraction such as git submodule sync --recursive && git submodule update --init --recursive, perhaps also some git init before. In addition to that you'll need some arch package providing npm for ASF-ui to build. My cc.sh script that Gilrain is using verifies that ASF-ui source and npm command are available during build.

If you'd like/need any ASF-related thing from me to provide, best to raise issue in ASF repo directly, since third-party packaging is part of ASF development, at least to the point of providing a base to work with. For now I don't see such a thing, which is good, makes me believe that ASF source code is easy enough to compile and use, but perhaps you'd appreciate some option that isn't considered as of now.

While building I get WARNING: ASF-ui dependencies are missing, skipping build of ASF-ui... and ASF-ui isn't available to me. Are you planning to include these or do you want to exclude the UI in a seperate package?

This package is now compiling the source code.

For now, you'll see these namcap warnings: W: ELF file ('usr/lib/asf/ArchiSteamFarm') lacks FULL RELRO, check LDFLAGS. W: ELF file ('usr/lib/asf/ArchiSteamFarm') lacks PIE.

I'll investigate further when community is updated to v3.x, since the benefits of those options would be lost while using dotnet AUR binaries.

EDIT: Upstream has integrated the needed functions [https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/685]. We'll have to wait for v5.0 at the end of 2020.

Fixed with 4.0.0.8.
